Online Privacy Policy
(Effective July 1, 2010)
First Republic Bank ("we") respects your desire for privacy and is committed to maintaining the confidentiality of your personal financial information. This document outlines our privacy policy for visitors to our web site. In addition, please click on this link to our Privacy Policy for consumers who have a continuing relationship with us, such as a deposit account, loan, or safe deposit box. We only collect personal information from individuals who provide it to us directly as part of a customer relationship with First Republic.
Visitors to Our Web Site. Visitors to our web site remain anonymous, unless they register for a service or otherwise elect to disclose their identity to us. Although we do not collect personally identifying information about persons who simply visit our site, we do collect certain limited information about visitors, such as their IP address (a numeric address assigned automatically to computers when they access the Internet). We also may place "cookies" on a computer to track a visitor's use of our web site. A cookie is a piece of data that is stored on your hard drive. It takes up very little room on your system and helps us to customize our site and make its navigation easier for you. We sometimes use cookies to help estimate the number of visitors to our site and to determine which areas are the most popular. Unless you register with us for a service (such as our online banking service), the cookie does not provide us with any personally identifying information about you, such as your name or address.
Links to Other Web Sites. Our web site may feature links to third party web sites that offer goods, services or information. Some of these sites may appear as windows-within-windows at this site. When you click on one of these links, you will be leaving our site and will no longer be subject to this policy. We are not responsible for the information collection practices of the other web sites that you visit and urge you to review their privacy policies before you provide them with any personally identifiable information. Third party sites may collect and use information about you in a way that is different from this policy.
Changes to this Policy. We may add to, delete, or change the terms of this Online Privacy Policy from time to time by posting a notice of the change (or an amended Online Privacy Policy) at this web site. We provide our current Privacy Policy for consumers when our clients establish a new banking relationship with us and also by an annual mailing to our clients. Your continued use of our web site or any online service following notice or receipt will constitute your agreement to the revised Policy that applies to you.
Questions. If you have any questions regarding this Policy, you can call us at 1-888-408-0288.
